Tampa Airport Taxis
You will find two taxi/cab companies operating from the airport; Yellow and United Cab. Both are conveniently located in the baggage claim level in the four corner areas.
You can expect to pay the same fare with both companies. A minimum fare of $15 is payable. Taxis operate on a meter so once the meter goes above $15 the minimum fare obviously will not apply to your journey. The fare operates per mile (not kilometres) and is $2 plus $2.25 per mile per mile for both companies.
If you are travelling to downtown Tampa and the cruise port connection then you will pay $25.
Taxi cab service is provided from the Commercial Ground Transportation Quadrants located in all four corners of the Baggage Claim Level.
